This Could Be U!

I was inspired by this picture 2 do this blog lol...There is a lot 2 be said..What's that old saying "picture is worth a thousand words"...Listen believe it or not I once smoked 2..I judge no one on this matter. However, putting aside all the picture humor it's all about health.


Around 5.4 million deaths a year are caused by tobacco.
* Smoking is set to kill 6.5 million people in 2015 and 8.3 million humans in 2030, with the biggest rise in low-and middle-income countries.

* Every 6.5 seconds a current or former smoker dies, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).

* An estimated 1.3 billion people are smokers worldwide (WHO).


Over 443,000 Americans (over 18 percent of all deaths) die because of smoking each year. Secondhand smoke kills about 50,000 of them.

1.2 million people in China die because of smoking each year. That's 2,000 people a day.

Tobacco use will kill 1 billion people in the 21st century if current smoking trends continue.

33 percent to 50 percent of all smokers are killed by their habit.
* Smokers die on average 15 years sooner than nonsmokers.



THIS IS THE CURRENT STATISTICS. (Not 2 speak of second hand smoke,) and the COST.
